Thank you so much, Dr. Tenopir, for your distinguished service to UTK, great stewardship of the School, and for paving that bright future! I am very happy and excited to be part of the SIS family. I can’t wait to meet you all in person (or virtually) in the next few weeks. Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions and/or need anything. Have a great summer😊 Abebe From: Tenopir, Carol <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2021 9:50 AM To: [log in to unmask]; School of Information Sciences <[log in to unmask]> Cc: Rorissa, Abebe <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Goodbye and Welcome to new Director Wednesday June 30 is my last day as Interim Director of SIS and we will welcome new SIS Director Dr. Abebe Rorissa.
